Breed	Growth model	Parameters			R2
		A ± SE	b ± SE	k ± SE
M-Pig®	Gompertz1)	64.57 ± 0.92	3.21 ± 0.06	0.06 ± 0.00	0.976
	Logistic2)	57.94 ± 0.58	12.33 ± 0.49	0.11 ± 0.00	0.969
Micro-pig®	Gompertz	31.47 ± 1.73	2.10 ± 0.44	0.07 ± 0.01	0.793
	Logistic	30.45 ± 1.56	4.76 ± 1.71	0.10 ± 0.02	0.775

Gompertz model: body weight, kg = A e − b e − k t .
Logistic model: body weight, kg = A(1 + be^–kt)^–1.
